Washington,
(ANI):
Bollywood
star
Salman
Khan
who
is
scheduled
to
go
to
USA
early
next
month
reportedly
cancelled
his
visit
on
Friday.
According
to
sources
Khan
decision
comes
in
the
wake
of
the
humiliation
faced
by
Shahrukh
Khan
at
Newark
Airport.
Salman
is
scheduled
to
partake
in
a
promotional
event
of
his
upcoming
movie
Wanted
besides
participating
in
an
auction
of
his
personal
paintings
to
raise
funds
for
charity.
Khan's
decision
was
also
propelled
by
the
hard
time
being
given
by
the
US
Consulate
in
Mumbai
in
approving
the
visa
of
his
associates,
including
one
of
his
family
members,
whom
Salman
wanted
to
bring
along
with
on
the
promotional
trip,
sources
said.
Besides
Khan,
producer
Boney
Kapoor,
Bollywood
star
Sridevi
and
Prabhu
Deva
were
also
scheduled
to
attend
the
promotional
event.
Following
the
Shahrukh
Khan
episode,
which
attracted
a
lot
of
media
publicity
both
in
India
and
the
US,
there
is
a
sense
of
reluctance
among
local
promoters
and
organisers
of
Bollywood
events
to
risk
inviting
stars,
sources
added.
Khan's
decision
has
put
a
bug
question
mark
before
the
promoters
and
also
local
organisers
in
cities
like
Chicago,
Houston
and
Dallas
who
have
invested
a
lot
of
effort
and
money
in
organising
these
events.
